Outlook 2010 install Windows 7 premium Question

Have just given my wife a new laptop for Xmas. It came with Windows 7 Premium installed. Neither of us like web based mail. Our old laptop, we used Outlook express and sure miss it. I'm looking onto Outlook 2010. It is what we want. MS office suite is too much $$ this time of year so I'm looking at the stand alone program for $130. Question: will I be able to install and run Outlook 2010 on this level of Windows 7 prem laptop?
